Case Study: CBG Building Company cuts two weeks per project and halves printing costs with PlanGrid Build

CBG Building Company - Customer Case Study

CBG Building Company (CBG) is a nationwide multi‑family general contractor with more than 20 years’ experience and over 60,000 homes built. The firm struggled with document control — relying on paper plans and a desktop-only platform that left crews working from outdated drawings, walking back to trailers for details, managing hundreds of RFIs, and spending about $10,000 on printing per project.

After a 2012 demo, CBG implemented PlanGrid across its 150-person team and rolled it out company‑wide. The mobile construction management app replaced paper prints, improved communication and collaboration, cut two weeks of wasted time per project, reduced rework, and roughly halved printing costs to about $5,000; PlanGrid is now standard on almost every CBG project.
